But Jonah was gone down into the innermost parts of the ship; and he lay, and was fast asleep.\nVerse 1:6: So the shipmaster came to him, and said unto him, What meanest thou, O sleeper? arise, call upon thy God, if so be that God will think upon us, that we perish not.\nVerse 1:7: And they said every one to his fellow, Come, and let us cast lots, that we may know for whose cause this evil is upon us. So they cast lots, and the lot fell upon Jonah.\nVerse 1:8: Then said they unto him, Tell us, we pray thee, for whose cause this evil is upon us; what is thine occupation? and whence comest thou? what is thy country? and of what people art thou?\nVerse 1:9: And he said unto them, I am a Hebrew; and I fear Jehovah, the God of heaven, who hath made the sea and the dry land.\nVerse 1:10: Then were the men exceedingly afraid, and said unto him, What is this that thou hast done? For the men knew that he was fleeing from the presence of Jehovah, because he had told them.\nVerse 1:11: Then said they unto him, What shall we do unto thee, that the sea may be calm unto us? for the sea grew more and more tempestuous.\nVerse 1:12: And he said unto them, Take me up, and cast me forth into the sea; so shall the sea be calm unto you: for I know that for my sake this great tempest is upon you.\nVerse 1:13: Nevertheless the men rowed hard to get them back to the land; but they could not: for the sea grew more and more tempestuous against them.\nVerse 1:14: Wherefore they cried unto Jehovah, and said, We beseech thee, O Jehovah, we beseech thee, let us not perish for this man’s life, and lay not upon us innocent blood; for thou, O Jehovah, hast done as it pleased thee.\nVerse 1:15: So they took up Jonah, and cast him forth into the sea; and the sea ceased from its raging.\nVerse 1:16: Then the men feared Jehovah exceedingly; and they offered a sacrifice unto Jehovah, and made vows.\nVerse 1:17: And Jehovah prepared a great fish to swallow up Jonah; and Jonah was in the belly of the fish three days and three nights.\n\n### Jonah 2\n\nVerse 2:1: Then Jonah prayed unto Jehovah his God out of the fish’s belly.\nVerse 2:2: And he said, I called by reason of mine affliction unto Jehovah, And he answered me; of the belly of Sheol cried I, And thou heardest my voice.\nVerse 2:3: For thou didst cast me into the depth, in the heart of the seas, And the flood was round about me; All thy waves and thy billows passed over me.\nVerse 2:4: And I said, I am cast out from before thine eyes; Yet I will look again toward thy holy temple.\nVerse 2:5: The waters compassed me about, even to the soul; The deep was round about me; The weeds were wrapped about my head.\nVerse 2:6: I went down to the bottoms of the mountains; The earth with its bars closed upon me for ever: Yet hast thou brought up my life from the pit, O Jehovah my God.\nVerse 2:7: When my soul fainted within me, I remembered Jehovah; And my prayer came in unto thee, into thy holy temple.\nVerse 2:8: They that regard lying vanities their own mercy.\nVerse 2:9: But I will sacrifice unto thee with the voice of thanksgiving; will pay that which I have vowed. is of Jehovah.\nVerse 2:10: And Jehovah spake unto the fish, and it vomited out Jonah upon the dry land.\n\n### Jonah 3\n\nVerse 3:1: And the word of Jehovah came unto Jonah the second time, saying,\nVerse 3:2: Arise, go unto Nineveh, that great city, and preach unto it the preaching that I bid thee.\nVerse 3:3: So Jonah arose, and went unto Nineveh, according to the word of Jehovah. Now Nineveh was an exceeding great city, of three days’ journey.\nVerse 3:4: And Jonah began to enter into the city a day’s journey, and he cried, and said, Yet forty days, and Nineveh shall be overthrown.\nVerse 3:5: And the people of Nineveh believed God; and they proclaimed a fast, and put on sackcloth, from the greatest of them even to the least of them.\nVerse 3:6: And the tidings reached the king of Nineveh, and he arose from his throne, and laid his robe from him, and covered him with sackcloth, and sat in ashes.\nVerse 3:7: And he made proclamation and published through Nineveh by the decree of the king and his nobles, saying, Let neither man nor beast, herd nor flock, taste anything; let them not feed, nor drink water;\nVerse 3:8: but let them be covered with sackcloth, both man and beast, and let them cry mightily unto God: yea, let them turn every one from his evil way, and from the violence that is in his hands.\nVerse 3:9: Who knoweth whether God will not turn and repent, and turn away from his fierce anger, that we perish not?\nVerse 3:10: And God saw their works, that they turned from their evil way; and God repented of the evil which he said he would do unto them; and he did it not.\n\n### Jonah 4\n\nVerse 4:1: But it displeased Jonah exceedingly, and he was angry.\nVerse 4:2: And he prayed unto Jehovah, and said, I pray thee, O Jehovah, was not this my saying, when I was yet in my country? Therefore I hasted to flee unto Tarshish; for I knew that thou art a gracious God, and merciful, slow to anger, and abundant in lovingkindness, and repentest thee of the evil.\nVerse 4:3: Therefore now, O Jehovah, take, I beseech thee, my life from me; for it is better for me to die than to live.\nVerse 4:4: And Jehovah said, Doest thou well to be angry?\nVerse 4:5: Then Jonah went out of the city, and sat on the east side of the city, and there made him a booth, and sat under it in the shade, till he might see what would become of the city.\nVerse 4:6: And Jehovah God prepared a gourd, and made it to come up over Jonah, that it might be a shade over his head, to deliver him from his evil case. So Jonah was exceeding glad because of the gourd.\nVerse 4:7: But God prepared a worm when the morning rose the next day, and it smote the gourd, that it withered.\nVerse 4:8: And it came to pass, when the sun arose, that God prepared a sultry east wind; and the sun beat upon the head of Jonah, that he fainted, and requested for himself that he might die, and said, It is better for me to die than to live.\nVerse 4:9: And God said to Jonah, Doest thou well to be angry for the gourd? And he said, I do well to be angry, even unto death.\nVerse 4:10: And Jehovah said, Thou hast had regard for the gourd, for which thou hast not labored, neither madest it grow; which came up in a night, and perished in a night:\nVerse 4:11: and should not I have regard for Nineveh, that great city, wherein are more than sixscore thousand persons that cannot discern between their right hand and their left hand; and also much cattle?",

Et miserunt sortes, et cecidit sors super Jonam.\nVerse 1:8: Et dixerunt ad eum: Indica nobis cujus causa malum istud sit nobis: quod est opus tuum? quæ terra tua, et quo vadis? vel ex quo populo es tu?\nVerse 1:9: Et dixit ad eos: Hebræus ego sum, et Dominum Deum cæli ego timeo, qui fecit mare et aridam.\nVerse 1:10: Et timuerunt viri timore magno, et dixerunt ad eum: Quid hoc fecisti? cognoverunt enim viri quod a facie Domini fugeret, quia indicaverat eis.\nVerse 1:11: Et dixerunt ad eum: Quid faciemus tibi, et cessabit mare a nobis? quia mare ibat, et intumescebat.\nVerse 1:12: Et dixit ad eos: Tollite me, et mittite in mare, et cessabit mare a vobis: scio enim ego quoniam propter me tempestas hæc grandis venit super vos.\nVerse 1:13: Et remigabant viri ut reverterentur ad aridam, et non valebant, quia mare ibat, et intumescebat super eos.\nVerse 1:14: Et clamaverunt ad Dominum, et dixerunt: Quæsumus, Domine, ne pereamus in anima viri istius, et ne des super nos sanguinem innocentem: quia tu, Domine, sicut voluisti, fecisti.\nVerse 1:15: Et tulerunt Jonam, et miserunt in mare: et stetit mare a fervore suo.\nVerse 1:16: Et timuerunt viri timore magno Dominum: et immolaverunt hostias Domino, et voverunt vota.\n\n### Jonah 2\n\nVerse 2:1: Et præparavit Dominus piscem grandem ut deglutiret Jonam: et erat Jonas in ventre piscis tribus diebus et tribus noctibus.\nVerse 2:2: Et oravit Jonas ad Dominum Deum suum de ventre piscis,\nVerse 2:3: et dixit: Clamavi de tribulatione mea ad Dominum, et exaudivit me; de ventre inferi clamavi, et exaudisti vocem meam.\nVerse 2:4: Et projecisti me in profundum in corde maris, et flumen circumdedit me: omnes gurgites tui, et fluctus tui super me transierunt.\nVerse 2:5: Et ego dixi: Abjectus sum a conspectu oculorum tuorum; verumtamen rursus videbo templum sanctum tuum.\nVerse 2:6: Circumdederunt me aquæ usque ad animam: abyssus vallavit me, pelagus operuit caput meum.\nVerse 2:7: Ad extrema montium descendi; terræ vectes concluserunt me in æternum: et sublevabis de corruptione vitam meam, Domine Deus meus.\nVerse 2:8: Cum angustiaretur in me anima mea, Domini recordatus sum: ut veniat ad te oratio mea, ad templum sanctum tuum.\nVerse 2:9: Qui custodiunt vanitates frustra, misericordiam suam derelinquunt.\nVerse 2:10: Ego autem in voce laudis immolabo tibi: quæcumque vovi, reddam pro salute Domino.\nVerse 2:11: Et dixit Dominus pisci, et evomuit Jonam in aridam.\n\n### Jonah 3\n\nVerse 3:1: Et factum est verbum Domini ad Jonam secundo, dicens:\nVerse 3:2: Surge, et vade in Niniven, civitatem magnam, et prædica in ea prædicationem quam ego loquor ad te.\nVerse 3:3: Et surrexit Jonas, et abiit in Niniven juxta verbum Domini: et Ninive erat civitas magna, itinere trium dierum.\nVerse 3:4: Et cœpit Jonas introire in civitatem itinere diei unius: et clamavit, et dixit: Adhuc quadraginta dies, et Ninive subvertetur.\nVerse 3:5: Et crediderunt viri Ninivitæ in Deum, et prædicaverunt jejunium, et vestiti sunt saccis, a majore usque ad minorem.\nVerse 3:6: Et pervenit verbum ad regem Ninive: et surrexit de solio suo, et abjecit vestimentum suum a se, et indutus est sacco, et sedit in cinere.\nVerse 3:7: Et clamavit, et dixit in Ninive ex ore regis et principum ejus, dicens: Homines, et jumenta, et boves, et pecora non gustent quidquam: nec pascantur, et aquam non bibant.\nVerse 3:8: Et operiantur saccis homines et jumenta, et clament ad Dominum in fortitudine: et convertatur vir a via sua mala, et ab iniquitate quæ est in manibus eorum.\nVerse 3:9: Quis scit si convertatur et ignoscat Deus, et revertatur a furore iræ suæ, et non peribimus?\nVerse 3:10: Et vidit Deus opera eorum, quia conversi sunt de via sua mala: et misertus est Deus super malitiam quam locutus fuerat ut faceret eis, et non fecit.\n\n### Jonah 4\n\nVerse 4:1: Et afflictus est Jonas afflictione magna, et iratus est:\nVerse 4:2: et oravit ad Dominum, et dixit: Obsecro, Domine, numquid non hoc est verbum meum cum adhuc essem in terra mea? propter hoc præoccupavi ut fugerem in Tharsis: scio enim quia tu Deus clemens et misericors es, patiens et multæ miserationis, et ignoscens super malitia.\nVerse 4:3: Et nunc, Domine, tolle, quæso, animam meam a me, quia melior est mihi mors quam vita.\nVerse 4:4: Et dixit Dominus: Putasne bene irasceris tu?\nVerse 4:5: Et egressus est Jonas de civitate, et sedit contra orientem civitatis: et fecit sibimet umbraculum ibi, et sedebat subter illud in umbra, donec videret quid accideret civitati.\nVerse 4:6: Et præparavit Dominus Deus hederam, et ascendit super caput Jonæ, ut esset umbra super caput ejus, et protegeret eum (laboraverat enim): et lætatus est Jonas super hedera lætitia magna.\nVerse 4:7: Et paravit Deus vermen ascensu diluculi in crastinum: et percussit hederam, et exaruit.\nVerse 4:8: Et cum ortus fuisset sol, præcepit Dominus vento calido et urenti: et percussit sol super caput Jonæ, et æstuabat: et petivit animæ suæ ut moreretur, et dixit: Melius est mihi mori quam vivere.\nVerse 4:9: Et dixit Dominus ad Jonam: Putasne bene irasceris tu super hedera? Et dixit: Bene irascor ego usque ad mortem.\nVerse 4:10: Et dixit Dominus: Tu doles super hederam in qua non laborasti, neque fecisti ut cresceret; quæ sub una nocte nata est, et sub una nocte periit:\nVerse 4:11: et ego non parcam Ninive, civitati magnæ, in qua sunt plus quam centum viginti millia hominum qui nesciunt quid sit inter dexteram et sinistram suam, et jumenta multa?"
